RADIATOR & MOUNTING GP 3860012 - Caterpillar

To avoid striking overpasses, electrical power lines and obstructions, always lower the body before moving the machine.
The machine must be stopped and engine at low idle before changing directions.After moving the shift lever, do not accelerate until after hearing or feeling the transmission clutches engage.

(1) Transmission control Make sure that the machine is stopped and that the engine is at low idle when you move the transmission control to the PARK position. When the transmission control is in the PARK position, the transmission is in NEUTRAL and the parking brake will engage.Make sure that the machine is stopped and that the engine is at low idle when you change direction between FORWARD and REVERSE, or between REVERSE and FORWARD.When you move the transmission control lever from NEUTRAL to any forward speed, first gear is engaged. At low ground speeds, the machine will be in torque converter drive.When the engine accelerates and the ground speed increases, the transmission automatically upshifts. During higher ground speeds of first gear and of other forward gears, the lockup clutch will be engaged. Then, the machine is in direct drive. When the engine speed slows and the ground speed decreases, the transmission automatically downshifts. During shifts, the machine will be in torque converter drive. Upshifting and downshifting are controlled automatically. The transmission will not shift until the proper ground speed is achieved. You can not force the transmission to shift by moving the transmission control lever.For more information on the transmission control, refer to Operation and Maintenance Manual, "Operator Controls".Shift Inhibiting
Use the Electronic Technician (ET) to program the gear limit. See Troubleshooting, Systems Operation, Testing and Adjusting, RENR8342, "Chassis Electronic Control system" for additional information.Shifting is limited in the following situations: engine overspeed protection, coasting in neutral, management of directional shifts, limiting top gear, reverse neutralizer and limiting body up gear.Engine Overspeed Protection
This machine is equipped with automatic engine overspeed protection. If the engine speed reaches 2475 rpm, the ARC system will automatically engage, regardless of the position of the ARC switch. In order to prevent further engine overspeed, the transmission will upshift one gear if the engine speed reaches 2750 rpm and the transmission is in the same actual gear as the selected gear on the transmission control.
Do not exceed 2750 rpm or engine damage can result.
Coasting in Neutral
The transmission will not shift into NEUTRAL if the machine speed is above 8 km/h (5 mph).Management of Directional Shifts
If the transmission is in a forward gear and the transmission control is moved into the REVERSE position, the transmission will remain in forward gear until the machine speed is below 8 km/h (5 mph). Then, the transmission will shift into NEUTRAL. The transmission will not shift from NEUTRAL into REVERSE until the machine speed is below 5 km/h (3 mph).Limiting Top Gear
The transmission will not shift to a gear above the selected top gear limit. The machine comes from the factory with the highest gear as the top gear limit. Use the Electronic Technician
